a "tea party" by a group with real injustices to protest

Gay Activists Plan Their Own Tea Party At Boston Harbor

Tea party protests won't be limited to the rightward-leaning, anti-spending, anti-tax crowd come April 15. In Massachusetts, the LGBT community is planning to reenact the Boston Tea Party to protest the tax code's unequal treatment of same-sex couples. Similar protests are also planned for post offices across the country.

Unlike the crazed right-wing teabaggers, who will do better under Obama's tax plan, this group actually has injustices that need to be righted.
Hopefully, some of our "liberal media" will cover these protests instead of just giving right wingers more coverage of their hatred and silliness...
